Previous studies have quantified the share of increasing average temperatures, rising sea levels , and ocean acidification attributable to major industrial emitters. The Alder fire in the Druid Complex in Yellowstone National Park, August 19, 2013. This latest study extends that analysis to the realm of wildfires.

Solar geoengineering, for example, does nothing to ameliorate ocean acidification, which occurs when the ocean absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The potential effects of solar radiation management are so large and wide-ranging as to implicate almost every aspect of life on the planet.
